Excerpt

With great interest, we have read a recent article entitled “Three polymorphisms in interleukin-1beta gene and risk for breast cancer: a meta-analysis”, which was published online in Breast Cancer Research and Treatment [1]. In this article, Liu et al. conducted a meta-analysis to address the association between the interleukin-1β (IL-1β) gene −511C>T polymorphism and the risk of breast cancer [1]. Their results showed that the polymorphism of IL-1β −511C>T was not associated with the risk of breast cancer. It is an extremely valuable study. …
